We have no party to represent Constitutional conservatives, any more. I suspect that the GOPe doesn't even care that they are relegating themselves to permanent minority status. A Potemkin Village opposition is so much more comfortable than a real second party.

No longer registered Republican. Am registered as No Party Affiliation in Florida.
I am a conservative Christian and will not vote for someone who is opposite my views
The GOP seems to be a run away train wreck with more GOP saying we need to get on board with illegal immigration, and gay marriage, not to mention the proclivity to E-GOP to support continuing spending rather than making cuts necessary to begin to do something to curb the ever expanding national debt.

Chambliss and Isakson are 2 of the worst puking POS RINO’s ever elected. Fortunately Chambliss figured out he is getting primaried next year so is thankfully retiring. Now Johnny boy will find out what its like to get primaried in 2016.

That Tom Coburn is a bit sneaky,
a favorite on gun control show Morning Joe + Joe and Mika he announces he WILL vote for cloture (making Mika smile) then a day later calls the Toomey-watered- own background check bill ‘un-workable’,

Well Tom, maybe your vote will be key in getting an ‘unworkable’ bill to Obama’s desk.

Remember these names;
it’s no surprise the a whackjob like McCain would vote for it, or a damnyankee like Toomey, but Corker? Coburn?

We can make these guys feel the pain. Unfortunately, we dont get a chance to unseat that bastard Coburn for 5 more years.
Corker, however, is up for re-election next year, and we NEED to see that he gets the NRA boot!

Anytime the Democrats need votes, thay know that they can always rely on the Republicans. The reason no Republican voted for obamacare was that the Democrats had enough votes to pass it. Once again we have been betrayed.

At least the Republican enemies of the Constitution all held hands together when jumping off the cliff. I fully expected them to draw lots (or choose the ones retiring or in the 2018 Senate class) to vote for cloture with 60 votes exactly to save the rest.

I was busy and unable to watch on C-Span. What happened to the “filibuster”? I don’t mean, that cloture was voted overwhelmingly. I found that out. I mean, why were Mike Lee and others unable to take and hold the floor? Wasn’t that their plan? Did they try to do that? What happened? Please, if you know...

I think Coburn term-limited himself to two terms in the Senate. It will be good when he is gone; I one thought he was the best senator since Helms, but no more. OK people though probably don’t know how he has turned left.

I am suspicious of anyone regularly praised on the Morning Joe.

If this bill dies as PD predicts then I will see differently.

I’ve called both of those idiots offices the last couple of days. I asked if they thought the voters of Georgia wanted their Constitution rights infringed any more. The staffers said that Johnny and Saxby were “studying” the situation. Looks like we will just have to melt their phones again. It would be nice to have a REAL conservitive from Georgia (are you paying attention Mr Gingrey?)

Citizens of the United States are longing for a strong leader to stand in opposition to the current regime and its enablers. I expect a strong leader will appear one day. I wonder if that will be a good or bad thing for us.
